Blonde? And I don't know what was going on with my hair.

Bobo and I got home and some weird homeless looking guy was in our crack shack. Will-o'-the-wisp. What??? Okay. Fae world. I guess I shouldn't be that shocked. This guy supposedly knows things about Bo's parents but won't give it up until we get his stolen stuff back.

And we were almost shot trying to retrieve it. I'm in over my head in these dreams. Human in a fae world. Sidekick to a Succubus. What could go wrong? Bo nearly killed someone and turned on me when I tried to stop her. There's some guy can that remove his head. Repeat: Removed his freaking head.

So apparently, in my dreams, when a Shadowhunter turns eighteen they usually go on a travel year and stay at another Institute. I went to Paris and while I was there I got a message from a warlock, asking for protection from some cult called the Crimson Hand. I decided to do this all on my own instead of getting help from anyone at the Paris Institute cause I didn't want them to see me as more of a Downworlder for helping a warlock. I told this warlock I'd meet him in Paris, but before we could meet, me and another Shadowhunter got attacked by demons called Iblis demons and we probably would have been goners had another Shadowhunter and warlock not just so happened to show up in a hot air balloon and help us out. It was pretty cool, if not extremely random.

These dreams are getting so much more exciting!

Why is it so hard for people to just mind their own business?

Was down on the beach, just relaxing when some dude-bro had to come up to me and question my decision to wear a crop top.

First off, they're comfy as hell.

Secondly, I flipped it on him and asked him why he was so insecure with himself that he needed to come try and police my decisions that have no affect on him whatsoever.

Of course, he tried to start an argument before I pointed out that no one was forcing him to look in my direction, or at me, but that I understood why he did as I was quite a sight to behold. That shut him up before he stalked off.

Hey, everyone. If you don't know who I am, yet, I am Alec Lightwood and I wanted to have a potluck on the 31st, so that we could all meet; I'd also like to use this as an opportunity for the newer residents to learn where the institute is and have access to it's resources.

It will be held at the institute, and I was thinking around 6:00pm.

As of now, Magnus is in charge of drinks & Jace is handling pizza. Are there any sort of dietary restrictions/preferences that we should be aware of?

Also, let us know what you are planning to bring.

Man, things were so busy with the end of Pride month and then 4th of July holiday. I definitely had a lot of fun attending some various Pride parties and then going to spend the day with my dad and my siblings for the 4th. The younger siblings got a new sprinkler toy and were obsessed with it, but I made sure to bring over a new version of a slip and slide for extra fun.

So on my dream front it's been pretty normal, just a lot of training and learning about being a Shadowhunter, but my stele did show up today. It's basically the tool we use to carve runes into our skin with a heavenly metal. It definitely still works here and I'm tempted to start using it for some extra boosts when I need them. Who couldn't use some extra endurance or good luck?

So my dreams have gotten even more interesting. Other than being part Fey and part Shadowhunter, Mark and I are now being raised by our father, which is where the Shadowhunter part comes from. We're being raised as Shadowhunters, which includes a lot of training in hand to hand combat and weapons and learning about different demons. It's a lot to train kids to do, but it's something we'll need as we get older.

I got my first Rune in my dream last night, which looks like an eye on the back of our hand. It's called a Voyance rune and it enhances our ability to see the Shadow World. When I woke up this morning, it was actually on my hand. Mark got his a few weeks ago, I was starting to wonder when I'd get mine.

Fog, not so much.

Giants? Well they haven't really bothered me!

John, Sam, and I are now wanted terrorist due fighting with the aliens who were trying to kidnap us. The News left out that part all together. Right, try to save the world and labeled the bad guy. Sorry I don't want Earth to end up like Lorien in my dreams.

I hope I'm allowed a dog.

Bernie Kosar was in my bed when I woke up....


He's a great Chimæra dog, if I can't keep him. I can see if Nine will take him.

Got invited to a pretty fun Pride celebration last night by a few guys I've done some modeling with here. That was a lot of fun and is getting me excited for the big Pride parade here soon. Definitely going to drag Helen out with me and maybe I'll ask my dad if I can bring some of the kiddos with.

Although, I do have to figure out some good makeup to cover up this rune that decided to appear on my skin after I dreamt about it. Why we have to put this rune on the back of our hand I will never understand, but it is what it is.

Anyone who saw my brother's recent post knows that he talked about us being half fey, in our dreams. Now it seems we've been sent to our father and are being raised as Shadowhunters, which is pretty cool. We're studying demons and learning how to fight them. Learning about Runes, which was marks we put on our skin that gives us various abilities. We use a thing called a Stele to do that and this morning I woke up to find mine on my nightstand.

I don't know if I should try to use it though. Runes apparently aren't meant for humans so if I'm still human then it could kill me. And I obviously don't want to risk that. Hmmm, what should I do?

Let the bouncer know that "Alec sent you."

PS the bouncer is a pushover. :P

EDIT::
Additional announcement: "Chromatica by Lady Gaga" listening party next Friday! Come give us some "Stupid Love" ;)

So it occurred to me that with everything that happened over the last couple of weeks, the quarantine and my brother turning into a woman, which was the most amusing thing I've ever seen in my life, I never actually introduced myself. So, here I am doing just that. I'm Helen Blackthorn, I'm 23, like making new friends and I'm an exhibit designer at the National History Museum of Los Angeles and it's so good being back to work. I was missing the museum during the shelter in place and was itching to finish the exhibit we were working on when everything closed down.

Well I officially made it to the kingdom in my Dreams we're not gonna talk about it being named Corona, nope and there was a huge celebration going on. It was so much fun! Dancing, some little girls braided my hair, flowers, food, and it was just so much fun. I'm actually kind of impressed with it and glad that the version of me in my dreams actually got to see what real human interaction is like.

The best part was in the evening Flynn took me out on a boat so we could see the floating lanterns on the water. I got chills watching all the lanterns float up from the kingdom. It was absolutely beautiful. and we're also not going to talk about that song full of feels

So, turning into a boy is basically like quarantining again - I've told work I'm sick so I can work from home on things. I leave to go do things outside, but my coworkers definitely don't need to see me like this.

I'm also falling down Asian drama rabbit holes. Ugh.

Oh my god, my brother is a girl!! I honestly don't care how this happened, but I'm extremely amused by this. I'm never going to let Mark forget about this.

My dreams are amazing! After we escaped the First Order we discovered the ship we stole originally belonged to this super famous smuggler! I read all about him on some of the databases I scavenged! He did the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs!

Then there was a situation with some people he owed money to and there were these scary rolling alien monsters and then we escaped by jumping to light speed from the shuttle bay and it was exciting!

Hi, my name is Mark. My poor sister Helen told me to join this network and I think she's regretting all decisions to let me crash at her place.

I just got back this weekend from the UK and I get to spend 14 days self-quarantining. The best part is we haven't spend this much time together in 6 years, so we'll see if we end up killing each other or not. The worst part is not being able to see the rest of my family until this is over, but at least video chats are a thing.

So, please, to help my sanity - give me any and all suggestions of things to do to pass the time.
